"Is my hand heavy? Didn’t I scratch you hard that night?" An Hao suddenly spoke.
Hong i instinctively reached to touch the three scars on her neck.
By the ti she realized, it was too late.
She turned her head and glared at An Hao, only to see a faint, cold smile in her eyes.
This ti Hong i was certain, An Hao had discovered her identity!
At the sa ti, An Hao was certain, this person was definitely not Gan Tian!
It matched perfectly with earlier speculations!
Hong i went back, knowing that An Hao hadn’t revealed her identity because An Hao had no evidence.
Evidence is essential for everything, just An Hao’s words alone couldn’t convict her.
So she still should have a period of safety for now.
This safety period is not absolute safety, she might face so troubleso scrutiny.
To ensure her identity isn’t fully exposed, she still had room to maneuver, thus she couldn’t panic. Only when truly at a dead end would she consider leaving.

Gan Tian’s parents ate and drank at Tian Niu’s place for a month.
Life in the city was much better than in the village, Gan Tian’s parents had gained weight, and their originally sallow faces gradually turned rosy.
This month, life in Gu Shuangshuang’s household was stretched thin.
However, she felt sowhat relieved that the matter hadn’t beco known widely in the unit.
At least this month’s food supply wasn’t entirely wasted.
It was ti to cook again, Tian Eri looked at the empty rice bin and flour, her frustration surged.
There was no way to make a al.
She turned around and left the kitchen, arriving in the living room, and saw Gan Tian’s parents munching on lon seeds and drinking tea, the table cluttered with seeds and peels, which enraged her.
She untied her apron and threw it hard in front of the two: "You’re not young anymore; I should call you uncle and auntie. But look at what you’ve done, squatting here, eating and drinking for over a month without leaving. You’ve made the house look like this! Completely inconsiderate!"
"You don’t need to tell us," Gan Tian’s father said without even lifting his eyelids; he had been here eating and drinking to make Tian Niu compromise, which wasn’t bad.
If it weren’t for his daughter’s restraint, he would have told the whole army about it.
"If I don’t speak up, who will? Please leave, you’ve eaten everything at our place! My sister-in-law is now jobless, entirely relying on my brother’s monthly allowance, how much is that? Are you trying to drive us insane before you’ll stop?" Tian Eri blurted quickly, saying whatever ca to her mind.
"Alright. Have your brother and sister-in-law divorce, then we can discuss our terms calmly." Gan Tian’s mother replied.
It was the sa words over and over, Tian Eri was so mad she could almost puke blood.
Gu Shuangshuang erged slowly from the room holding her child and waved to Tian Eri: "Co on, accompany for a stroll."
"But I haven’t cooked yet!"
"There’s nothing at ho to cook, why bother? Let’s go, we’ll skip the al." Gu Shuangshuang said.
"If you don’t eat, what do we eat?" Gan Tian’s mother asked.
"Eat whatever you want. Consider the house yours and handle it yourself." Gu Shuangshuang said, then left with the child and Eri.
